Pei Sheng's reaction made Chu Yi feel very pleased. Chu Yi nodded and praised: "Pei Aiqing is still loyal and brave. I am very pleased. Since Pei Aiqing has this courage, I will give you this opportunity."

Pei Sheng hurriedly knelt down and thanked him for his order.

Chu Yi held his right hand with a helping hand and said, "Pei Aiqing, please get up."

Pei Sheng thanked him and stood up.

Chu Yi said again: "I have always been clear in rewards and punishments. If Pei Aiqing can suppress the rebellion for me this time, I will grant you the King of Loyalty and Righteousness."

Pei Sheng was overjoyed and knelt down again to thank him.

You know, since the founding of the Southern Chu Kingdom, there has never been a king of different surnames. Now that Chu Yi put such a big cake in front of Pei Sheng, how could Pei Sheng not be excited?

More than 20 years ago, Pei Sheng was just a poor student who had just passed the exam. The difference between him and the king of another surname was not a small matter.

After hearing the heavy reward the emperor promised Pei Sheng, some of the other ministers couldn't help but feel jealous and even regretted not standing up just now.

I just thought about it again and again that this job is not easy, and if I don’t do it well, I will lose my head.

Most of them were nobles from the Southern Chu State. They were pampered and had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, so how could they take risks for this?

However, Pei Sheng was happy, but found that Emperor Chu Yi had only handed over the task of suppressing the rebels, but did not say how many soldiers he would send.

Pei Sheng originally thought Chu Yi would say it in a while, but after Chu Yi ordered this, he announced that he had retired from the court.

The parliament was over this time, and Pei Sheng still didn't know how many soldiers Chu Yi was going to send to him.

All the ministers walked out, and Chu Yi turned around and left.

Pei Sheng was confused and didn't know what to use to defend the enemy. Just when he was about to find Chu Yi, Fugui came over and said, "Please go to Cuiwei Palace to see the enemy."

Pei Sheng calmed down and thought, it was the emperor who was meticulous and sent many people to do such things. Naturally, the fewer people knew about it, the better, so as not to tell the rebels if there were traitors in the palace, it would be no trouble if they told the rebels.

When Pei Sheng came to Cuiwei Palace, he saw that Wei Shihui, who had just sang a contradictory tune with him, was there, but he didn't think much about it.

Because Wei Shihui is very good at painting, he is very favored by the emperor. He often discusses painting skills with the emperor in the palace, and has become a more favored person around the emperor.

Pei Sheng invited the emperor to the emperor, and Chu Yi had a very good temper and gave Pei Sheng a seat.

Pei Sheng was immediately flattered. After thanking him for his kindness, he sat down happily and asked: "I don't know how many soldiers the emperor plans to send to take him to wipe out the rebels."

Chu Yi stretched out five fingers and said, "I plan to send this number of troops to let you go and wipe out the rebels."

Pei Sheng was stunned and asked tentatively: "Fifty thousand?"

Chu Yi smiled slightly and said, "Pei Aiqing, it's five hundred."

"What?" Pei Sheng almost fell off the stool. Pei Sheng's eyes almost popped out, and he said with an incredible look: "Master, with the current military information, there are already more than 10,000 rebels outside the capital of Chu Jing. Feng Zhen's traitor has an army of 100,000. The emperor gives the ministers five hundred, but I'm afraid it's..."

Pei Sheng didn't dare to say it was too little, but he felt extremely aggrieved in his heart, thinking that the emperor was deliberately making things difficult for him.

But thinking about it, I have always been loyal to the emperor, and now it is an emergency. The emperor has no reason to deliberately make things difficult for him. Could it be that the emperor has no soldiers...
